how to update NTFS-3g

1.type into terminal
sudo apt-get remove ntfs-3g
2. download latest copy of ntfs-3g from their website http://www.ntfs-3g.org/index.html#download
3. (if you already installed basic compiler tools better for you) extract file to directory, open terminal in directory and:

    a. ./configure
    b. make
    c. make install      # or 'sudo make install' if you aren't root
(for version 2009.1.1)
you may want to put sudo ahead if problems
